Took my son hunting on Thursday, he got to carry his own rifle for the first time. Not many things better than sitting with your boy in a stand for several hours and talking about what you see.

He's shooting a cut-down Encore in 243 with a Leupy 4x.

He made a couple of really good decisions, including passing on a chip shot yearling, and I rewarded him with his first knife while in the stand, a Buck 501.

End of the day was nice too.

conchworker;
Thanks for sharing the stand and rack photos with us. There are few things as nice to see as the younger set out hunting.

Please pass on congratulations to him on the nice buck! I'd be happy with that any year. cool

I'll send you my first tip of the hat for 2011 for ensuring that the hunt took place and another young hunter had a positive day afield. Well done sir!

From our family to yours, all the best in 2011.

Regards,
Dwayne
